Miracle Page #2

Synopsis: The inspiring story of the team that transcended its sport and united a nation with a new feeling of hope. Based on the true story of one of the greatest moments in sports history, the tale captures a time and place where differences could be settled by games and a cold war could be put on ice. In 1980, the United States Ice Hockey team's coach, Herb Brooks, took a ragtag squad of college kids up against the legendary juggernaut from the Soviet Union at the Olympic Games. Despite the long odds, Team USA carried the pride of a nation yearning from a distraction from world events. With the world watching the team rose to the occasion, prompting broadcaster Al Michaels' now famous question, to the millions viewing at home: Do you believe in miracles? Yes!

Nick and Nora Charles. The Thin Man.

- You're gonna make me wear this?

- Yes.

They're sophisticated and dashing.

I've got a mustache for you

and a little dog for me.

Excuse me.

- Linda, can you get that for me?

- Oh, sure.

Hello. Yes, just a moment, please.

Patti, it's for Herb.

Someone from the USOC.

- No.

- It's eight-nothing!

It's gonna be a dramatic comeback.

Go.

- Herb.

- Yeah.

Herb.

You've got a call from Colorado.

We're not done here.

So then he went along with that?

I appreciate that, Walter. Thank you.

- What'd they say?

- I got the job.

- I got the job. How about that?

- Oh, great.

- When do you start?

- Two weeks.

- They want you to start that soon?

- The Games are in February.

But it's June. Is there even ice?

Mommy. Mommy, Mommy.

We're supposed to take the kids

to the Black Hills.

Cleopatra wants to say goodbye to you.

- OK. OK.

- I gotta call Craig Patrick right now.

How you doing? Phil Verchota.

- Name?

- Ralph Cox, UNH.

- Name, please?

- Mike Ramsey.

- Number, towel. Jack O'Callahan, right?

- Last time I checked.

- Good luck, Jack. Who's next?

- Thanks, buddy.

Jimmy Craig.

- Hey, Jack.

- What's up, you sieve?

- How's it going?

- Good.

Any reason why Joey Mullen's not here?

About 30,000 of them, all sitting

in his New York bank account.

- He got a $30,000 signing bonus?

- Crazy, isn't it?

How's it looking?

A lot of guys from Minnesota and Boston.

Yeah, that's gonna work.

You're Robbie McClanahan, right?

- Yeah.

- Mike Eruzione. Boston University.

- '76.

- '76.

Trying to play for Brooks a little more?

I played for him for four years.

A few more months wouldn't hurt.

What about you?

Trying to play a little more hockey,

that's all.

The rest of your boys all here?

Of course.

Think they'd miss out on this?

You might wanna wait a day or so

before you go over and say hi.

Check!

Come on, hit those lines!

Head for the net! The net!

Skate, boys! Skate!

Skate!

Drop your shoulder!

On the wing!

Man, look at that move.

Rizzo!

Eruzione?

Cross him off the list. He doesn't have

a shot in hell at making this team.

- You think so?

- No way.

One more.

Doc cleared him.

Says it's just a sprain.

Good.

I just want to let you know I'm looking

forward to being able to coach with you.

You were a hell of a player, Craig.

- You're gonna make a hell of a coach.

- Thanks.

I need you to stick tight with these

kids. Any big problems, let me know.

- Otherwise you take care of it, OK?

- OK.

- Take a look at that.

- What's this?

Twenty-six names.

The tough part is getting it down to 20

before the opening ceremonies.

This is the final roster?
